How we price demolition →Demolition in Stansted Mountfitchet: what to know
Stansted Mountfitchet is a large village in Uttlesford beside the M11 and Stansted Airport, with older terraces and cottages on the hills around Lower Street and Chapel Hill and newer estates such as Foresthall Park and Walpole Meadows. There is no Essex recycling centre in the village: the nearest are Saffron Walden (about 10 miles) and Harlow (about 13 miles).
Building in Stansted Mountfitchet has shifted to the north of the village, where around 420 further homes are being promoted along High Lane and beside Walpole Meadows, following the earlier Foresthall Park and Elms Farm schemes. The parish has about 140 listed buildings, two scheduled monuments and three protected lanes, so heritage checks are routine for renovation near Lower Street, Chapel Hill and Silver Street, where the older roads offer limited kerbside space for a skip. Houses on the 1950s to 1970s estates are a common setting for extensions and loft conversions.
Terraced streets with resident parking are routine: the truck stops in the road for a few minutes while it's loaded. Send photos of the structure and the access and we'll send a free estimate for demolition, loading and disposal. If the job turns out different on the day, with more to take down or harder access than described, we agree any change with you before we start.
Domestic outbuildings rarely need permission, but check with Uttlesford District Council if the building is listed, in a conservation area or attached to a neighbour's wall. Asbestos cement roofs are removed first by a licensed contractor.
